Baek Jin-hee

Baek Jin-hee is one of those quietly impressive performers who lets her resume do the talking — and what a resume it is. She broke out in the hit sitcom High Kick: Revenge of the Short Legged back in 2011, which is already a chaotic, lovable ensemble to cut your teeth on, but then she went and anchored the sprawling historical epic Empress Ki in 2013 and that's where I really took notice. Playing a layered character across that kind of prestige production at just 23 takes genuine range. The awards followed fast — MBC Drama Awards three years running from 2013 to 2015, plus a Baeksang Arts Award in 2014, which is about as respected as it gets in Korean television. She's not a flashy celebrity type; she's a craftsperson, and her comeback in The Real Has Come! in 2023 reminded everyone she still has plenty left to give.
